Jean and Maggie spent over thirty-years of their lives educating young people, both dreaming of traveling to exotic lands during their retirement years. In March 2003, Jean and Maggie both retired early, and fulfilled their long-held dreams to travel on an African safari, in Kenya and Tanzania. Two Women in Africa: The Ultimate Adventure is a humorous, fast-moving account of the rigors Jean and Maggie faced, while experiencing several unique, and outlandish adventures on safari. The two women, caught up in the politics as war broke out between Iraq and the United States, sensed the hostility toward Americans. Fascinating African culture, and spectacular scenery are described throughout the book. Jean takes you along on their journey through rough, and dangerous land; home to thousands of Masai tribal members, to discover and explore their unique culture. Thrilling descriptions of African wildlife enhance Jean's account of their daily safaris, including close encounters of the ferocious kind. Read how they turned their dreams of Kenya and Tanzania into reality.

Featuring contributions from some of the most accomplished scholars on the topic, Holding the World Together explores the rich and varied ways in which women have wielded power across the African continent, from the precolonial period to the present. Suitable for classroom use, this comprehensive volume considers such topics as the representation of African women, their role in national liberation movements, their experiences of religious fundamentalism (both Christian and Muslim), their incorporation into the world economy, changing family and marriage systems, impacts of the world economy on their lives and livelihoods, and the unique challenges they face in the areas of health and disease.

This edited collection explores the lives, consequences and motivations of female researchers in Africa, giving unprecedented insights into how their gender--and sometimes their ethnicity and age--impacted on their research experiences, and how doing research in Africa affected them as women. Each contributor considers her place or position in the research process and provides a vivid portrait of that experience. Drawing on research findings from Nigeria, Ethiopia, Cameroon, Ghana, Guinea, Malawi, Uganda and other African countries, the book looks at gender and identity as a female researcher in Africa; relationships with 'others'; and unique methodological challenges for female researchers in Africa. With refreshing candour, each chapter challenges other researchers in Africa (both women and men), to integrate critical reflections of gender and diverse gendered field experiences into their work. Women Researching in Africa will be of interest to students and scholars across a range of disciplines including development studies, anthropology, geography, gender studies and international studies.

It is 1964, a month after independence celebrations in the spice islands of Zanzibar, off the east coast of Africa. A brutal uprising takes place apparently led by a shadowy figure, John Okello. In the capital, Stone Town, a British official, Mark Hamilton, struggles to help the Sultan's government survive while protecting his young family. In the countryside, Ahmed al-Ibrahim, a Zanzibari Arab father, faces annihilation and a terrible decision. Fatima is his twelve-year-old daughter, and her life is changed forever by the violence that now sweeps across the islands. Fatima's survival through this chaos and the thirty years of rule by despotic Presidents takes all her courage and the kindness of other families. Elizabeth, Mark Hamilton's young daughter, also remembers the day of the Revolution and their escape across the seas. Her story too is touched by tragedy. Fatima and Elizabeth are connected in a way that takes almost fifty years to be revealed. Elizabeth will return to Zanzibar to fulfil her father's final request. The life journeys of the two women are different. The common link is the day of the Revolution and the act of a desperate man.

Anyentyuwe (an Mpongwe) and Ekâkise (a Benga) are feminists for their time, although their fathers set them on another path before they are age ten. The former is brought to Baraka mission for education and safekeeping. Soon orphaned, she feels enslaved by the mission. Ekâkise's father offers her to a nearby clan to prepare for marriage, she soon learns. Feeling enslaved, she later flees to Batanga mission to escape spousal abuse. Medical missionary, Dr. Nassau, and his educator sister Isabella, are involved in two different and very controversial attempts to help victims become survivors. Robert had to retire early, but with Isabella, they author "Two Women." Finding no willing publisher, the typescript has been at Lincoln University since 1911. Dr. Henry Bucher's commentary comprises two-thirds of this work-- a bridge between history and culture. Two Women is a rich resource for those interested in African history, colonialism, gender studies, missiology, anthropology, and more.
